When storing eggs to hatch, they must be turned at least twice a day, and do fine at 70 degrees. The hen lays only one egg each day, so if she lays 14 eggs it takes two full weeks to lay the entire clutch. Before all the eggs are layed she will leave them at nights to roost in a tree but when the number reaches 7 or 8 she will sit on them partially during the day.
